It's better than Elantris, it's better than Name of the Wind, and it's a lot better than Promise of Blood. So does this one live up to the hype? Absolutely! This is possibly the strongest fantasy debut I've ever read. I had seen huge ravings about this book and had to check it out. This is yet another independent e-book that through sheer momentum got noticed and picked up by a publisher. A future that will alter not only the realm, but the world. But one truth overpowers all the rest: Vaelin Al Sorna is destined for a future he has yet to comprehend. His father, too, has motives that Vaelin will come to understand. He cherishes the memory of his mother, and what he will come to learn of her at the Order will confound him. Vaelin’s rage at being deprived of his birthright and dropped at the doorstep of the Sixth Order like a foundling knows no bounds. Vaelin’s father was Battle Lord to King Janus, ruler of the unified realm. The Brothers of the Sixth Order are devoted to battle, and Vaelin will be trained and hardened to the austere, celibate, and dangerous life of a Warrior of the Faith. Vaelin Al Sorna was only a child of 10 when his father left him at the iron gate of the Sixth Order. The Sixth Order wields the sword of justice and smites the enemies of the Faith and the Realm. From "a new master storyteller" comes the beginning of an epic fantasy saga of blood, honor, and destiny.
